WARNING
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do
not connect the green grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding
wire and must be connected to grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have
the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
grounding plug can result in a
risk of electrical shock.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit, and has
a grounding plug that looks like plug illustrated in sketch A.
A temporary adapter which looks like the adapter illustrated
in sketch B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2
pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded
outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be
used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid
ear lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be

IMPORTANT
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION
If an extension cord is used, make sure it is of the three-conductor type with NEMA connectors so a continuous grounding circuit is
provided from tool to power circuit receptacle. Also, be sure that the conductor size is large enough to prevent excessive voltage drop
which will cause loss of power. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found below.
For nameplate ampere ratings which are between those given, use the extension cord recommended for the NEXT higher ampere
rating.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the suffixi W-A following the cord type designation. For example
— SJTW-A to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.

WARNING
HAZARD
Injection Injury - A high pressure stream of paint pro-
duced by this equipment can pierce the skin and
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation.
PREVENTION
• Maximum operating range of the gun - 3000 PSI fluid
pressure.
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to come in contact
with the fluid stream. DO NOT come in contact with a
fluid stream created by a leak in the fluid hose.
• NEVER put hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not
provide protection against an injection injury.
• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger,shut fluid pump off and
release all pressure before servicing, cleaning tip guard,
changing tips, or leaving unattended. Simply turning off
the motor will not release pressure in the system. The
Prime Spray Valve must be turned to the position to
relieve the pressure. See Pressure Relief Procedure,
Page 10.
• ALWAYS have the tip guard in place while spraying. The
tip guard provides some protection against injection
injuries but is mainly a warning device.
DO NOT TREAT AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injectioncan lead to amputation. See a physician immediately.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin
is a traumatic injury. It is important to treat
the injury surgically as soon as possible. DO
NOT delay treatment to research toxicity.
Toxicity is a concern with some coatings
injected directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.
•
ALWAYS remove spray tip before flushing or cleaning
the system.
• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking, abuse
etc. A leak is capable of injecting material into the skin.
The paint hose should be inspected before each use.
• NEVER use a spray gun which does not have a trigger
lock or trigger guard in place and in working order.
• All accessories must be rated at or above 3000 PSI
(Includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose).
• In case of skin injection, see physician immediately.

WARNING
HAZARD
Explosion or fire - Solvent and paint fumes can explode or
ignite causing property damage and or severe injury.
PREVENTION
• Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be provided to
keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation
of flammable vapors.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks,
open flames such as pilot lights, hot objects such as
cigarettes, and sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords and working light switches.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present and in
working order.
• Keep the pump away from spray area to avoid solvent
and paint fumes.
• High velocity flow of material through equipment may
develop static electricity. The equipment being used,
and objects in and around the spray area must be
properly grounded to prevent static discharge and sparks.
• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure fluid
hoses for airless applications. Be sure that gun is
grounded through hose connections.
• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's safety
precautions and warnings.
• WHEN FLUSHING EQUIPMENT use lowest possible
pressure.
